Description: James Otis MESSENGER No. 48 1899 The Werner Co., NY 1st Edition Illustrated. The book in the pictures is the one you'll get. Feel free to ask any questions and thanks for looking! Note: We'll be moving in three months - any offer will be seriously considered! "A true classic chums novel, nothing in the chain of events that take our 14 year old hero Jethro (Jet) from a hardscrabble life in the Bowery to a career as a private detective makes any sense, but it is a fun random walk through the story never the less. Otis has the greatest gift of the genre novelist in that he never once lets you rest at some point long enough to say, "Hold on, why do they need to send to all the way to Albany for police backup?" or "Why do these crooks keep attending traveling minstrel shows?". Otis is committed entirely to the bizarre circumstances of this tale, and I have now read this book several times over the decade that I have owned it, and it never grows stale"
